Self-similar stochastic slip distributions on a non-planar fault for tsunami scenarios for megathrust earthquakes
Abstract Megathrust earthquakes that occur repeatedly along the plate interface of subduction zones can cause severe damage due to strong ground motion and the destructive tsunamis they can generate. We developed a set of scenario earthquakes to evaluate tsunami hazards and tsunami early warning sys...
